A mysterious, sweet, earthy aroma. Notes of amber, patchouli, rose and sandalwood blends with nuances of jasmine and citrus to bring out subtle spice undertones. Base notes of vanilla and powder completes this scent.

Rating:I wanted to update after my last reviews. I've now tried Dragons avoid scents from several other suppliers hoping to find a less expensive bit similar scent. I have found nothing compared to this from any of the others I've tried. They all smell cheap and nowhere near as strong or nice. I will only be buying Dragons Blood here feom NDA for the future and not waste time or money trying to find better. This one is worth the splurge. Hands down the best dragons blood ever.

Rating:I made a batch of cold process soap with this tonight.. It discourse to the darkest red brown I'd ever seen but it's perfect in CP soap with a bit of red added to make it a true dragons Blood shade. It smells Hippie 70s incense type smells. I think this will be a big seller. I topped mine with drizzled micas on top and it's lovely.

Rating:Smells OK & is very dark in color. It to me smells like a type of candy that I ate & grew up with called Pixy Stix Candy & not just any old Pixy Stix Candy but to be specific, the Purple/Grape Pixy Stix. I don't mind this fragrance at all but to some it may sound & seem very strange how I describe the unique scent of this fragrance oil. Most of the time, my family would tell you that I am right on with my sensitive & strange sense of smells & identifying what something smells like.
To me, I picture that it would be great for making homemade formulations for little kids or small children & then using this Dragons Blood Fragrance Oil to scent the homemade formulations. It is not too potent & not too light in fragrance strength.

Rating:This is a medium amber colored oil that has many appealing characteristics. The description provided by NDA includes a true breakdown of the scents that combine to make up this fragrance: amber (light scent present), patchouli and rose (more noticeable in this scent) and sandalwood (light scent that's present) blends with nuances of jasmine and citrus (both of these become slightly more noticeable within about five minutes of letting the oil breathe, or what I've heard called its burn down effect). This fragrance is complex, as it doesn't take on any single scent from which it's been made. For me, I keep getting the scent impression of standing in front of a well stocked incense display area at a metaphysical shop. It's a complex, slightly sweet, slightly spicy scent and I get the impression that is more closely connected to a deep grounding effect, yet over time starts to move away from a solid earth grounding scent to that of an air effect scent. NDA used the term "mysterious" in its description and I would agree. While the fragrance lightens a bit after fifteen to twenty minutes of burn down, the heavier earth tones do begin to diminish, as more of the sweet undertones become more pronounced. By itself, as I have not combined it with another fragrance oil or added any essential oils to enhance it yet, I would agree with other reviews that say it could be a unisex fragrance. On a male, more mysterious, however I could see it more clearly on a female as a seductive, earthy, sultry fragrance. The subtle spice undertones tend to diminish with its burn down effect. This oil's base notes of vanilla and powder do not overpower it at all, as compared to the Dragon's Blood Fragrance Oil sold by an online only soap company that specializes in essential and fragrance oils. This oil may not be for everyone, as it does conjure up memories of visits to certain witchy/metaphysical stores. If one is looking for a scent that is exactly the same as that of ground dragon's blood smoking in an incense blend, this is not exactly it. However, I'm giving it five stars because it is as described by NDA and it is a nice exotic fragrance to have on hand. It's enjoyable.

Rating:Daring! This oil has an exotic, magical, mystical energy about it. I mix several drops with vanilla shea butter, rub it on my feet before I go out and I not only feel energized, but people seem to be more attracted in their conversations, and 9 out of 10 times make comments about how I smell. I've even had people walk up and smell me. Not exactly the goal, but I love the energy! :) It has a soft, sweet, light, heavy scent of roses and amber - as best as I can describe.

Rating:It is such a sensual scent. It is a big hit with men and women. It does turn a dark chocolate brown in GM CP but doesn't cause any other problems. A VERY pretty bar. I use 1 oz. per lb of oil in all of my shampoo bars. People like the way it stays with their hair.

Rating:I love this scent! I never smelled it before a fellow lotion-making friend introduced me to it a few weeks ago. It blends so nicely with sensual amber and other spicy oils.

Rating:My first impression of this FO was a little mixed, but it grew on me very quickly. It is a strong, unique, oriental and "new age" sort of scent. My simplest summation of it is "incense with cinnamon on top" but it is actually more complex, with some fruity sweetness, warm musk, and ...parchment, I guess. It is cool, heavy, and dark, but in a magical, celebratory way. very yin. I'd say this is on the feminine side of gender-neutral, but very close to unisex. it is more "feminine" than "masculine" but I do not think it smells girly or femme.

Rating:This scent is amazing! It could be used for men or women. Reminds me of a hippy drizzled with sweetness. It is very strong and the scent sticks with CP soap well. This scent will discolor CP soap to a dark brown. After a few weeks of curing I have black spots in my CP soap. It looks kinda cool. I used 1oz/ 1lb but next time I will probably use half that amount. I did not have a problem with the scent seizing up my CP soap but I did add a couple extra oz of water just in case, after reading a review that claimed it seized CP soap.

Rating:This scent is more female than male. i wanted it for a male soap but my guy dislike it for the scent, was too girly he said. It will work for younger kids. Right now I'm using it with another scent to get it to be stronger. it will discolor the Mp and soap makes the colors become darker. Yet the scent holds well as the bar melts down.

Rating:I ordered this oil and I was really excited about the reviews of it. I had never smelled dragons blood before so I was going to give it a try. However when I smelled the bottle it was a very strong scent and I did not like it. I will try it in a small batch of MP and see if I change my mind. Maybe the scent will grow on me when it is not so strong from the bottle.
